    A few new kilt pins I've made recently.

    Here are a couple of kilt pins I just finished making.

    The first is a copy of an ancient Pictish/Celtic sword done in silver, brass and bone. I've seen plenty of sword kilt pins, but they all seem to be the Claymore and Broadsword variety. I thought this would be a bit more unique:




    The second is a deer antler tine/point that I mounted in sterling silver with a purple amethyst stone:

    Very nice take on two traditional pin designs. Both are striking. Well done.

    Great job on both, but the sword is really nice.
